WWF Commend Engadin For Environmentally Friendly Ski Event

Published : 01-Jul-2009 06:29

The Swiss branch of the WWF has given a positive report on the annual ski marathon in the Engadin region around St Moritz, which is one of the country's larger sporting events, attracting thousands of competitors.

A newly released WWF Report on the efforts of major Swiss sporting events to be environmentally friendly says that the Engadin Marathon makes a concerted effort to reduce its environmental impact, by encouraging participants to use public transport to reach the area, using power from renewable sources at the event, providing bio-degradable containers for food, and bio foods among other initiatives.
